We have need for 2 input mask. Would like user to select from 2 types of
input in the form, so the criteria would be a text field with 1 character in
size. For example, 1 mask would be __-_-__-_ and the other ___-_-__-__.
 
in a form, you can set a control's InputMask property at runtime, using a
macro or VBA. if the user is selecting "from 2 types of input", presumably
in a combo box, list box, or option group, in the form, then you can use
that control's AfterUpdate event to run a macro or VBA procedure to set the
InputMask property of another control in the form. see the InputMask
Property topic in Access Help for details, and post back if you run into
problems.
